Ordinary observers in fast time travel

After finally finishing a business talk, Ling Yuan proposed the content of the cooperation. The content was simple: the Zhenxi Army would provide the medicinal materials, Doctor Zhao would make them into pills, and the Zhenxi Army would buy them at a price of two cents per pill.

Although the price was low at two cents per pill, Shi Jia agreed without much hesitation, considering that there was no need for medicinal materials and it was for the army.

A medicine boy plans to make more than a thousand balls a day. If each ball costs two cents, that's more than two thousand cents. The shop is purchased, not counting the rent. Then the firewood cost, food cost, labor cost, all calculated... well, not much, hard-earned money.

Forget it, forget it, she doesn't make money just from basic pills anyway.

"Chuncao, bring the things up." Shi Jia felt that it was still necessary to promote the new products.

"Master!" Chuncao came up with two brocade boxes. Shi Jia pointed at the two of them and said, "Let Quartermaster Ling and Second Master Ling take a look."

Chuncao nodded, walked up to the two of them, placed the brocade box on the coffee table, and carefully opened it. Two wax balls the size of pigeon eggs lay quietly on the silk.

"Please come in!" Chuncao walked to the side and waited.

"What's this, Doctor Zhao?" the two of them wondered.

"You two might as well open the wax ball and take a look."

The two men picked up the wax ball curiously and examined it carefully. Soon they found a crack in the center of the wax ball. They poked their fingernails into the crack, and with a "click", the wax ball opened.

A pea-sized brown ball appeared, with a strong medicinal aroma that made one feel refreshed.

"Good medicine!" Ling Yuan's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine it was, he felt that the dull pain in the injured area was relieved a lot.

After he said that, he reluctantly sealed the wax ball.

"Doctor Zhao, what is this medicine?" Ling Dingfeng asked curiously.

"Xumian Pills and Buyuan Pills." Shi Jia said, "Xumian Pills, as the name suggests, are used to prolong the life of dying people. Taking this pill can prolong life for a month. It is generally used to extend the treatment time when there is no doctor around. Of course, it can also be used as an ordinary life-saving pill, but it is a bit of a waste of resources."

"The Buyuan Pill can restore body functions and replenish vital energy. It is most suitable for physical recovery after a serious injury." Shi Jia said, this was specially developed by him for generals on the battlefield.

As for why it was a general, not a soldier? Because the cost was high. To use precious medicinal materials such as 100-year-old ginseng and ganoderma lucidum, she calculated that one portion of medicinal materials would cost about 1,000 taels, and one portion of medicinal materials could produce about 20 pills, so one pill cost about 50 taels.

As for the price, one hundred taels per piece is about right. After all, she made it by hand, so it can't be too cheap.

"Hiss~" Ling Yuan took a breath of cold air. "Doctor Zhao, this..."

Shi Jia smiled and said, "I believe you two understand the value of these two pills. I dare say that with these two pills, the lives of the generals will be more secure."

Ling Yuan nodded, "Doctor Zhao, how much does this pill cost?"

"The medicinal materials used in this pill are very precious. They are all ginseng that is more than a hundred years old, ganoderma lucidum and other precious medicinal materials. So the price will be much higher." Shi Jia said.

"Please tell me." Ling Yuan felt that the price would be beyond his imagination.

"I want to sell one pill for 100 taels." After Shi Jia finished speaking, Ling Yuan took a breath of cold air. One pill for 100 taels is not expensive for a life-saving drug, but if it is to be supplied to the army...

"Well, I'm afraid the Zhenxi Army will have no chance of getting this pill." Ling Yuan said.

Shi Jia raised his eyebrows. Was he thinking of giving each soldier one? "The Zhenxi Army has no chance, but the generals shouldn't mind having two more life-saving pills like this, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yuan realized that he was wrong. It was impossible to give one such precious pill to each soldier, otherwise no amount of military funds would be enough.

"Ahem, you're right." Ling Yuan nodded quickly, "I happened to bring 500 taels with me when I came to Jinshui City this time, so I'll buy four pills first."

Shi Jia smiled and said, "Sure, if Lord Ling is willing to do me a favor, I can give you another pill."

"Doctor Zhao, if you need anything, just let me know." Ling Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse such a good thing. "Here are ten pills, Lord Ling, please take them back and ask other generals if they need them." Shi Jia said.

Ling Yuan was delighted. That was great. He had just regretted that he had too little silver on him.

On this side, Shi Jia and Ling Yuan were conducting business exchanges in a friendly manner, while on the other side, Ling Dingfeng was staring at the Bu Yuan Dan in a daze.

The two finished their discussion and looked at Ling Dingfeng.

"Second Master Ling, do you have any questions?"

"What does it mean that this Bu Yuan Dan can repair the body's functions?" Ling Dingfeng stared at Shi Jia closely.

"Well, you should know that people are born, grow old, get sick and die, and the internal organs in the body will also weaken. Taking Yuan-boosting Pills can repair the damage to the body to a certain extent and improve the function of the internal organs." Shi Jia said.

"What about the man's ability in that area?" Ling Dingfeng blurted out.

Shi Jia was stunned.

The next second, Ling Dingfeng became an instant celebrity.

“Ah, um, this, nothing… I, I just, just casually…” Ling Dingfeng’s brain was about to explode, how could he, how could he say something like that.

Ling Yuan, who was stunned beside him, finally reacted, "Ahem, Doctor Zhao, Dingfeng's brother was poisoned a year ago. The medicine was very toxic. Even if the poison was removed, it would still damage his body - so..."

Ling Yuan's face turned red as he spoke.

Shi Jia smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm a doctor, and doctors don't differentiate between men and women."

Ling Dingfeng just hummed softly and lowered his head, not daring to look at Shi Jia.

Shi Jia continued, "Although the Yuan-boosting Pill has the effect of repairing body functions, it will be useless if the function has already been damaged."

"Ah? So it's possible?" Ling Dingfeng looked up suddenly.

Shi Jia nodded, "Okay. But I can't guarantee whether it can be cured."

"Then I want to buy a few pills too." Ling Dingfeng said hurriedly.

Ling Yuan quickly added, "In fact, we came here this time not only to discuss cooperation matters, but also for another important purpose, which is to ask Doctor Zhao to go to Shangjing to treat Dingfeng's brother Ling Dingkun."

"Ah! Yes, yes!" Ling Dingfeng's mind finally regained a little clarity. He hurriedly told Shi Jia everything about his brother's situation, and finally made an earnest invitation to Shi Jia.

Fortunately, Uncle Ling Yuan is here this time, otherwise he would forget it again. Oh, this stubborn brain, why does he always forget this?
Shi Jia nodded, "So it seems that Master Ling was poisoned by a chronic poison, and the medicine used to remove the poison was not suitable for his condition, resulting in the remaining poison not being cleared. The remaining poison is increasingly damaging his body, and he is now paralyzed in bed?"

"Yes, what do you think the chances are that my eldest brother will recover?"

"This is difficult to deal with." Shi Jia frowned. Ling Dingkun was actually paralyzed? I hope his lower limbs haven't been necrotic yet. "It's been too long. I'm afraid the toxins have invaded the bone marrow, causing the central nervous system to malfunction, which led to Young Master Ling's paralysis."

"Can it be cured?" Ling Dingfeng looked at Shi Jia nervously.

"I'm not sure. I have to see it myself." Shi Jia said. "How about this, I'll have the pharmacists work overtime and try to make all the pills within half a month, and then I'll go to the capital with Second Young Master Ling."

Ling Dingfeng was overjoyed, "That's great, thank you Doctor Zhao."

"You're welcome. After all, you are also my important partners." Shi Jia smiled gently, "Besides, I am also very interested in Mr. Ling's condition. If I can cure Mr. Ling, wouldn't my reputation as a miracle doctor be more worthy of its name?" (End of this chapter)
